Reborn Nongmen's little lucky wife

Chapter 119

After the beans were cooked, Gu Jinli stopped the fire immediately, and said to Gu Jinxiu who was lighting the fire in the kitchen, "Sister, where is the little cloth bag I asked you to make?"

The small cloth bag is used to hold fried soybeans and make cake embryos.

Gu Jinxiu said: "It's in the bag hanging behind the door of our house, you can get it yourself."

After hearing this, Gu Jinli ran to the house where they lived, and took out a bunch of small cloth bags from the bag hanging behind the door.

The small cloth bag is only the size of a clay pot, and it is made of two layers of burlap, which is very thick and can withstand beatings.

Gu Jinli returned to the kitchen porch, brought a wooden bowl, put the fried crushed soybeans into a small cloth bag, tied the mouth of the bag with a coarse cloth cut into strips, and put it on the straw mat aside for later use.

Cheng Ge'er is very sensible, he moved the straw mat, and at the moment he is opening a pair of big eyes, watching Gu Jinli crush the soybeans without blinking.

He poked the small cloth bag containing crushed soybeans on the straw mat, and asked Gu Jinli, "Second Sister, can you make oil after filling the beans?"

Gu Jinli nodded: "Well, you can start pressing the soybeans after packing them." As he spoke, he filled another small cloth bag, tied the mouth of the bag tightly, and put it on the straw mat.

"Squeeze?" Brother Cheng asked very puzzled: "Second Sister, what is squeeze? Is it like croquettes during Chinese New Year?"

Gu Jinli smiled, pinched his cheek, and said, "No, you'll know later."

This squeeze is not deep-fried, this squeeze needs to be beaten.

Brother Cheng is a good boy. Hearing this, he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he quietly watched from the side, waiting for his second sister to extract the oil.

Cui Shi was no stranger to Gu Jinli's preference for making weird things. She was busy scooping up bean curd to make tofu, so she only glanced to this side, then looked away.

Not long after, Gu Jinli packed twenty catties of crushed soybeans into eighteen small cloth bags.

After installing it, I ran to the yard, moved a large wooden box made by Gu Dashan to the kitchen porch, and brought the custom-made discus. After all the embryos are placed, put a discus on it.

He ran to the yard again and moved a wooden shelf over.

She asked Gu Dashan to make the wooden frame according to the size of a discus.

This wooden frame can be disassembled. After she disassembled the wooden frame in half, she put it on the stacked discus and cake embryos. After aligning the six mortise joints on both sides of the wooden frame, she slapped it hard.

After a few snaps, the separated wooden frames were tenoned together, locking the discus.

She was worried that the mortise and tenon joints of the wooden frame were not strong enough, so she brought another bundle of burlap, cut the burlap into finger-wide strips, and tied the wooden frame round and round. After helping a dozen times, she stopped. .

Finally, she took a big wooden bowl, dug a small hole, put the wooden bowl in the small hole, swung the hammer with both hands, and hit the top discus fiercely.

Dangdang Dangdang!

The hammer hit the discus once and for all.

There was a lot of movement, and Cheng Ge'er, who was next to him, was taken aback. He quickly covered his ears, and looked at his second sister in a daze.

"Second, Second Sister..."

Why do you want to play discus?

The third grandma, Cui Shi, and Gu Jinxiu all ran out to watch when they heard the movement. They all looked dazed when they saw her hitting the discus with a hammer.

The third grandma asked: "Little fish, what are you doing? What are you doing playing discus?"

Gu Jinli smiled and said, "Third Grandma, I'm making oil, just wait a little longer, and the oil will come out in a while."

"It's making oil again?" The third grandma shook her head: "Then you do it, if you can't do it, you will give up."

They knew about Xiaoyu making oil, but they felt that she was fooling around. Historically, only fat meat can be boiled to make oil, and they have never heard of beans being able to make oil.

But Xiaoyu was a great contributor to their family, and made tofu, which made the family a living, and the third grandma let her do the tossing.

Seeing her hitting the discus with a hammer, Cui was very worried, and told her, "Slow down, and be careful not to hurt your hands."

"Hey, now that I know mother, don't worry, I'll wait for my daughter to make oil for you." Gu Jinli continued to beat the discus with a hammer while talking.

Cui stood by the side worriedly and watched for a while, seeing that she was hitting very accurately without hurting her hands, then went back to the kitchen to continue making tofu.

Gu Jinli continued to beat the discus. The discus was pressed by the beating and slowly sank. While sinking, the pressure squeezed the soybean cake embryo sandwiched between the discus.

After a cup of tea, the cake embryo wrapped in a small cloth bag slowly oozes oil, and the soybean oil slowly flows to the bottom of the box and meets at the bottom of the box.

After a quarter of an hour, a shallow layer of soybean oil had accumulated on the bottom of the wooden box.

Gu Dashan made a long downward sloping groove for the wooden box. The soybean oil flowed out along the long groove and dripped into the wooden bowl, filling the wooden bowl in a short time.

Cheng Ge'er widened his eyes, pointed at the wooden bowl and said, "Second Sister, Second Sister, it's oily, it's really oily."

The second sister did not lie to them, soybeans can really be turned into oil.

Gu Jinli smiled and said to Brother Cheng: "Go and get a clay pot to fill the oil."

"Oh, I'll get it right away." Brother Cheng ran into the kitchen on short legs, and came out with a clay pot.

He put the clay basin on the ground, took out the wooden bowl filled with soybean oil, carefully poured it into the clay basin, and put the wooden bowl back.

Brother Cheng looked at Huang Chengcheng's soybean oil, and asked Gu Jinli, "Second sister, can soybean oil be eaten?"

Gu Jinli said: "Of course it can be eaten. This soybean oil is similar to meat oil. It can be used for cooking, fried food, and can be used to light lamps."

Since the establishment of Dachu, it has only been three generations, and the previous dynasty has gone through many years of wars. Therefore, the people of Dachu are very poor, and many people cannot afford to light lamps.

When they first came to Dafeng Village, they didn't have oil to light their lamps at all, so they could only use fires for lighting at night.

With this soybean oil, her house will be able to light up the lamp every day in the future, and there will be no need to burn a fire for lighting.

Brother Cheng was pleasantly surprised: "I can light a lamp." Children are afraid of the dark, so he was very happy to hear that soybean oil can light a lamp.

Gu Jinli swung the hammer, banging the discus to extract oil, and stopped to rest for a quarter of an hour.

Qin Sanlang did not go out of the stall today, but went into the mountains to cut firewood. When he came back, he heard her clang of oil, and saw her little person hitting a discus with a hammer. He frowned and came to her yard. Said: "This work is very tiring, let me do it."

All the way to escape from the famine, Gu Jinli had been acquainted with Qin Sanlang for a long time, so he was not polite to him, and handed him two hammers: "Here you are."

Qin Sanlang took the hammer and hit the discus quickly.He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and he is bigger than his peers. He has a lot of strength, and he beat a lot of oil.

After beating like this for half an hour, the cake base has been beaten very thin, and the oil output has become less, Gu Jinli said: "Brother Qin, stop."

At this moment, they have already produced soybean oil in a clay pot.
